Win-Win (1963)

[Fred Shapiro]

Here is an earlier citation for "win-win":

1962 J. David Singer _Deterrence, Arms Control and Disarmament_ 109  In
zero-sum games, every win for one side is a loss for the other; there can
be no such thing as a "win-win" outcome....Objectively, a win-win outcome
was available, but the prisoners played as if it were not.
